And don't over-tighten the motor mount screws because the can is made of some really soft aluminum that strips easily.
Thanks for the feedback.

Is there something wrong with the TLR alum hexes? I've not encountered any issues...

Me personally I just don't like them because they are just slid on and are held in place by friction, and come off at times when I pull the tires for cleaning which has resaulted in a lost drive pin. I prefer the ones with set screws. Other than that I have never had any other issues with them. Just my 2 cents

which hexes are you talking about ?

Tip if you dont have the clamping hexes... a little loctite on the pin and Hex will help prevent it from coming off when you dont want it to.

The kit comes with clamping hexes. If you started with the RTR, then the part number for the standard clamping hexes are LOSB3493. We also offer wider ones for the rear if you want them, that part number is TLR332014.

I got mine used, and the push on ones is what was on it as well as a NIP set. So I am not sure if this was off of the 1.0 and they just used what they had or what. The clamping ones are on my list of things. after I rebuild my diff's.

Yes, TLR7011 works very well. We also have TLR7004 (Yellow) and TLR7012 (white) for some color options (I use yellow myself).

LOSB7018 also works very well. Some of the guys on the team run these as they are a touch stiffer.

TLR wheels are great and you can add in disks for performance and stiffen up the wheel and add some color or flair. There are many wheel offerings from DE racing for colors and styles. They have a Speedline + wheel that has grooves in wheel to grab the foam so the foam does not move on the wheel as much.

I can't comment on the mach 2 but a mate of mine has a sonic 10.5 in his Durango 4x4 sct and it flies. Very low temps too. I have an old 10.5 out of my tc that I'm thinking of throwing in.

I love the Mach2 in my SCT but the Tekin Pro4 4000 in my SCTE is a beast!

Default my slop!

Hello all! So I've driven my truck enough to realize that I've worn down the center diff bearings, the front and rear driveshafts, and the camber links (or the balls inside). Does anyone have recommendations for suppliers on bearings? Should I replace the balls only or get new plastic ends with balls? Are there other camber links that I can run that work out better in regards to strength and durability? What should I replace the universals front and rear with, factory replacements?

It takes some time, but search within this thread and you will find too many options to list. My thoughts, Any new rubber sealed bearing kit, Tekno center drive shafts, Factory stock drive shafts are good, and the stock ball end links with steel 6.8 balls which require 3mm bolts but last 2 or 3 years of racing.
